For iHeartMedia CHR “Z100” WHTZ New York, everything’s been coming up “Rosas” since 2021, when Crystal Rosas joined the station for PM drive, given two tough acts to follow: Elvis Duran in mornings and Ryan Seacrest middays.
With a 1.5 million weekly cume in persons 6+ Mon.-Fri. 3-7pm during Nielsen’s spring 2026 wave (April-June three-month average), Rosas — who also hosts the nationally syndicated “The New Hitlist” nightly on more than 150 iHeartRadio stations — leads Inside Radio’s TOP 10 CHR afternoon drive shows.
“Z100” is one of eight iHeartMedia CHR stations represented in the top 10, including the top four of PM drive’s top five. Ranked second is KIIS-FM (102.7) Los Angeles’ also-nationally-syndicated 29-year host JoJo Wright, followed at third by “103.5 Kiss-FM” WKSC Chicago’s Brady Broski, who’s accompanied listeners dealing with the Kennedy Expressway since 2013. For “106.1 Kiss FM” KHKS Dallas, which places fourth, Colt Parkey was handling afternoons during this period.
Rounding out the top half of the top 10 is Cumulus Media KRBE (104.1) Houston’s afternoon team of Kevin Quinn and Audrey Rose, the latter a 2024 Gracie Award winner for major market co-host/personality, non-morning drive.

San Francisco is the only market with two CHR PM drive hosts in the top 10. Landing at sixth is Connoisseur Media “99.7 Now” KMVQ’s 17-year afternoon host St. John, while in ninth place are iHeartMedia “Wild 94.9” KYLD’s Gabby Diaz & EJ, the former in her 11th year at the station.
iHeartMedia claims the rest of the top 10. “Kiss 108” WXKS-FM Boston’s “VBros” rank seventh, with Kiss 13-year veteran Mikey Vinci along with brother Frankie and Gianna Gravalese. Coming in eighth is KDWB (101.3) Minneapolis’ Vont Leak, and at 10th is “The Joe Show’s” Joe Carballo on “Channel 955” WKQI Detroit.
